Swollen Thyroid on NAX and NT

[spica]

Has anyone experienced a swollen thyroid after taking NAX and NT? I have been on these NAX x 5 and NT x 4 daily for almost a year on the advice of Dr P and have become very aware of my thyroid gland over the last week - it feels tight in this area, but not very sticky-outy. I am a bit worried that these doses are causing a problem.

I think it would be better to contact Dr P's office and explain your concerns. The staff are so very helpful - and will speak to Dr P if he is busy and get back to you with a reply.... As he has met you and knows your history - he is the one who will have the best answers.....

Thanks Marz, sensible advice. I was just wondering whether anyone else had had the same problem. As usual things have got slightly worse over the weekend!

I had right side of my thyroid removed with a small tumour and with in weeks of starting meds my left side grew to the size of a mans adam apple. Some days it goes down others I feel as though I have some thing stuck in the middle of my throat. I was told that my remaining part of thyroid trys to enlarge itself to compensate.

My neck feels like you describe - like there is something stuck or you have a scarf there. I will post what Dr P advises me to do. I have stopped taking the NAX and NT in the meantime. Thanks for your reply Tinkestral.

Hi I know this is an old post but my neck feels very tender and I have stopped taking it. What was the outcome?
